Line Charts

Ideal for showing trends over time, line charts are perfect for tracking sales, revenue, or performance over a period. They make it easy to spot growth patterns, seasonal fluctuations, and identify potential opportunities or risks.

Area Charts

Similar to line charts but with filled areas, area charts highlight the magnitude of change over time. They’re great for comparing multiple datasets and emphasizing the volume of data beneath the trend.

Bar Charts

When comparing categories or groups, bar charts provide a clear visual of differences in data. Use them to analyze sales by product, performance by department, or customer feedback by category.

Mixed / Combo Charts

Combine line, bar, and area charts in a single visualization to represent multiple data types effectively. This approach is useful when you need to compare different metrics with different scales on the same chart.

Range Area Charts

Range area charts display the spread between high and low values over time. They’re especially helpful for illustrating uncertainty, confidence intervals, or min-max comparisons.

Timeline Charts

Use timeline charts to track sequential events, project milestones, or key business activities. They help stakeholders visualize task progress and understand the duration of critical phases.

Funnel Charts

Funnel charts break down data into sequential stages, making them ideal for analyzing sales pipelines, lead conversion processes, or customer journeys. They help you pinpoint where potential drop-offs occur.

Candlestick Charts

Commonly used in financial analysis, candlestick charts show price movement over time. These charts are perfect for visualizing stock trends, opening and closing prices, and high/low ranges.

Box & Whisker Charts

Box and whisker charts provide a detailed view of data distribution, helping you identify outliers and spread. Use them when analyzing variations in data, such as response times or quality control measures.

Pie / Donut Charts

For displaying parts of a whole, pie and donut charts are highly effective. They’re best used to show percentage distributions or proportional data across categories.

Radar Charts

Radar charts (also called spider charts) allow you to compare multiple variables across different categories. Ideal for performance analysis, they help visualize strengths and weaknesses at a glance.

Polar Area Charts

Similar to radar charts but using circular areas, polar area charts show the magnitude of data across categories. Use them for comparing performance, survey results, or data with cyclical trends.

Radial Bars / Circle Charts

Radial bar charts, or circle charts, elegantly show progress or completion rates. They’re commonly used for KPIs, goal tracking, or percentage-based achievements.

Bubble Charts

Bubble charts add a third dimension to scatter plots, making them useful for comparing multiple variables. They’re ideal for analyzing relationships and trends where size or magnitude matters.

Scatter Charts

Scatter charts visualize the relationship between two variables, helping identify correlations and trends. They’re especially useful for exploring patterns, outliers, and possible predictions.

Heatmap Charts

Heatmaps use color intensity to represent data, making them perfect for identifying trends, clusters, and anomalies across large datasets. Use them for customer behavior, traffic patterns, or performance analysis.

Treemap Charts

Treemaps visualize hierarchical data by dividing it into nested rectangles. They’re excellent for showcasing proportions, identifying categories, and understanding data structures.

Slope Charts

Slope charts are ideal for comparing changes between two points in time. They quickly reveal increases, decreases, and trends in data, making them useful for before-and-after analysis.
